1  I bought this 1976 Honda CB360T on October 7, 2006. The seller's ad stated that he had purchased this bike in 2003 from a mechanic who rebuilt the whole bike and that, "It looks great but currently does not run."  Fresh off the trailer, it doesn't look too bad from ten feet away. If I had my druthers, I would like to have found a Honda 305 Super Hawk (CB77) like this or like the one I used to own in  1963, but the chances of finding one are on the negative side of nada.

2  Some rust here and there, but the price didn't include shiny.

3  All the parts seem to be here.

4  Up a little closer, you notice a bit more rust. The mufflers are not original, but everything else appears to be.

5  The crash bar shows evidence of a minor laydown, but no dents, dings, or scratches are in evidence elsewhere.

6  The engine was sprayed with aluminum paint; that has to go!
